It's understandable. Bisexuals are widely known to get flack from both straights and gays. You just have to stand up for what you are and not pretend to be something you're not.
If people can't accept that, then they're not your friends. Give them time; they'll come around.
Just, don't be ashamed. You are what you are, and there is nothing wrong with that. Like whomever you like, but if you are ashamed of being bisexual, you're just going to enforce the image that your friends may have of your orientation.

She just said it all..

Yeah, and i completely agree with her.
I tend to find that openly gay people don't mind really but in-the-closet gays are more offended.

The answer: No. If that person is still attracted to members of both sexes, he is still bisexual; he isn't gay or straight, he is just in a gay or straight relationship.
My sister recently tried to contradict that description. She'd never been attracted to girls until she met her girlfriend, and they're now madly in love. She then tried to tell me she was a lesbian. Wrong! She is still attracted to men, as well, so that makes her bisexual.
Your orientation has little to do with what relationship you're in, especially if you're bi. Bisexuals can be in love with men and women, but that doesn't change the fact that they are, in fact, bisexual. Gays/lesbians have been known to be "in love" with members of the opposite sex (although that never works out for the better, because they're deluding themselves), but they're still gay.
